Highlights of SLIM™ Fashion
Style, Colour and Size Flexibility
Apparel and Fashion companies need the ability to operate on three different product characteristic levels - style, colour and size. SLIM™ Fashion provides the ability to store multi-dimension articles and handles the large volumes of data within sales orders, factory orders or purchase orders very efficiently.
Handling the Complex Supply Chain
In working through the many pre-production steps, the industry suffers from an extended time to bring a new product to market. Combine this with the fact that most companies now source fashions and basics overseas, longer lead times and more complex distribution have dissipated the advantage of lower production costs. SLIM™ Fashion provides visibility of your entire supply chain; from your overseas suppliers to the fashion retail outlets.
Managing twenty seasons in a year
With multiple seasons, in extreme cases this can be up to 20 times a year, fashion companies have a huge variety of goods at various stages of their supply chains all of the time. From design through demand planning, sourcing, distribution and in store sale, SLIM™ Fashion individually manages the demands of the different product segments.
Minimising End of Season Stock
In the fashion industry the need to keep inventory levels under control is extremely important, due to the nature of the short product life cycle. In this industry, there is only one opportunity to sell the goods. SLIM™ Fashion fine tunes the balancing act of keeping inventory at the necessary level to satisfy demand, while ensuring that they are not left with obsolete inventory.
